November 11th is a very significant and festive day for the people of Poland, as they celebrate their Independence Day. It has become a tradition in Cameroon that all Polish missionaries gather for prayer and recreation on that day. Initially, meetings were organized at the Pallottine Polish mission stations. For several years, however, we have been meeting in Atok - at the Divine Mercy Sanctuary of the Diocese of Doumé Abong-Mbang, where Bishop Jan Ozga is the leader of the Church. Every year, Bishop Jan (presently the only Polish bishop in Cameroon) - presides over the solemn Mass, proclaims the Word of God and gives the latest information on the life of the Church. The meeting is always attended by the Polish Honorary Consul in Cameroon - Ms. Mirosława Etoga and other digniteries.

Meditations
* Our Way of Life *
"Our diverse talents and abilities, our differences in culture, nationality and age are assets for the richness of the community. Although we may be engaged in a variety of ministries, we all share the common call to apostolic discipleship in a community of the Catholic Apostolate of St. Vincent Pallotti."(OWL, 91)

"As a community of disciples we are gathered around Jesus, the Apostle of the Eternal Father. Like the first disciples, we want to be with Jesus, be sent out by him and return to him to evaluate our service in the light of his presence." (OWL, 88)

"As Pallottines, it is our special charism to foster growth in faith and love among the laity, to awaken them to awareness of their apostolic call, and to cooperate with them in furthering the apostolic mission." (OWL, 21)

"Our relationships with one another should be marked by a love that bears all, believes all and hopes for all, a love that is neither conceited nor jealous, which hurts no one, nor is embittered or resentful. It is never discouraged but remains patient and kind. It rejoices with others and shares their suffering. It is with this kind of love that we should help and support one another." (OWL, 90)
